    @mrsrain: exactly this! We weren't allowed to use fart either. It was always pass gas. Not sure what we will say with LO.

    We usually say poot.

    If we accidentally pass gas and it is audible we will say, "Did you hear that barking tree spider?" or "I think I just stepped/sat on a frog." We are weird.

    We use *toot* for LO.

    @HabesBabe: What is the Vietnamese word? Could you spell it out phonetically?

    I am DYING at: popper, shoot a bunny, breezer, and fritters!!!

    We made up the word, "blup", we talk about farting all the time, we're so mature

    Also, I can't remember where I heard it, but I heard a saying, "Children are like farts, the only ones you can stand are your own." So sometimes I'll tell him to "keep your kids to yourself", ha!

    @MsLipGloss: it's "dit"... it sounds pretty much the way it's spelled!

    So, don't judge... DH and I say cropdust. Like "Did you just crop dust?" Hahaha. We will NOT use that with a future LO... probably just pass gas, or maybe toot.

    But definitely not fart! I think it's crude.

    I used to tell Charlie, "I think I just heard a barking spider!". Now he says the same thing...

    DH has all kinds of weird terms for it... Usually he says "Damn ducks" or "I think I just stepped on a barking spider". When we first got married, I told him that over X amount of farts a day indicates a medical problem, so now he usually says "Sorry about my medical problem." and laughs. lol.

    @MrsADS: we use that if you walked through the room and did it. Or it followed you.

    Anyone say barking spiders?
